Born of an evolving love of music and set in the deep focus of serious listening and learning, <a href="http://marsalismusic.com/releases/songs-mirth-melancholy" target="_blank">Songs of Mirth and Melancholy</a>, is full of virtuosity and joy, touching the listener with its expressiveness, melody, emotion; those elements of music that transcend genre and period and speak to us of inspiration and beauty. Comprised primarily of original compositions from each musician, a Wayne Shorter tune paying tribute to that great man and a nod to Brahms, the duo presented here provides the listener with a glimpse into their ever deepening musical journey.<br />
<br />
The album is being released on June 7, 2011.<br />
